Abstract

This study investigated the effects of childcare teachers' stress level and health status on burnout. We collected the data of 236 day care teachers who were working at day care facilities in the city and chose 220 after excluding improper responses. Data analysis was done using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The study results were as follows. The exhaustion of childcare teachers had a statistically significant positive correlation with stress levels, but a statistically significant negative correlation with health status. The description of the complete model was 47.6%(regulated $R^2=.476$) with psychological health(${\beta}=-.297$, p<.001), and social health(${\beta}=-.257$, p<.001), stress level(${\beta}=.247$, p<.001). Thus, reducing the exhaustion of childcare teachers will require the consistent development of a stress management program with the application of psychological and social health, as well as various institutional reforms on both governmental and civil levels and a search for practical solutions.

본 연구는 보육교사의 스트레스 수준, 건강상태가 소진에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 시도되었다. 연구 대상자는 시 소재 보육시설에서 일하고 있는 보육교사 236명을 대상으로 자료 수집을 실시하여 이중 부적절한 응답을 제외한 총 220부를 분석하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS/WIN 21.0 program을 이용하여 통계 처리하였다. 연구 결과 보육교사의 인구사회학적 특성에 따른 스트레스 수준, 건강상태, 소진과의 관련 요인은 연령, 자녀유무, 1일 평균 근무시간, 주관적 건강상태가 관련이 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 보육교사의 스트레스 수준, 건강상태 및 소진 간의 관계에서 소진은 스트레스 수준과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, 건강상태와는 통계적으로 유의한 음의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 보육교사의 스트레스 수준과 건강상태가 소진에 미치는 영향에 대한 본 연구의 회귀모형은 통계적으로 적합하였으며(F=12.769, p<.001), 전체 모형의 설명력은 47.6%(Adjusted $R^2=.476$)로, 심리적 건강(${\beta}=-.297$, p<.001), 사회적 건강(${\beta}=-.257$, p<.001), 스트레스 수준(${\beta}=.247$, p<.001) 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 보육교사의 소진을 낮추기 위해서는 심리적, 사회적 건강 프로그램을 적용하고, 스트레스 감소를 위한 지속적인 관리프로그램 개발과 정부 및 민간 차원의 다양한 제도 개선과 대책방안 마련이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
